Directed by Jean-Paul Salomé (France, 2022, 121 min.). French with English subtitles.

La syndicaliste is the true story of Maureen Kearney (Isabelle Huppert), the head union representative for a French multinational nuclear powerhouse. She became a whistleblower, denouncing top-secret deals that shook the French nuclear sector. Alone against the world, Kearney fought government ministers and industry leaders to bring the scandal to light and defend more than 50,000 jobs before she was violently assaulted in her own home. This taut thriller follows the aftermath of that horrific incident when, over the course of an intense investigation, Kearney becomes a suspect in her own assault.
